Sexual Frenzy & Unmasking the Real Madame Arcati

Duncan Fallowell ( Prospect Magazine)

The novelist and travel writer Duncan Fallowell has a remarkable revelation.

In his latest book, How To Disappear : A Memoir for Misfits Fallowell says he had 40 ‘sexual partners’ in the month
following Princess Diana’s death, ‘including a group of women in a
naturist Jacuzzi in Brighton.’ We learn this in an interview with the writer conducted by the British Blogger Madame Aracti.

“People were impassioned but slowed right down, which are the two best
conditions for sex,”. “On September 29, several weeks after all these
events, I noted in my journal that I’d had 40 sexual partners in the
month following Diana’s death, including a group of women in a naturist
Jacuzzi in Brighton where I’d found myself by chance.“Most of the
encounters had something accidental about them, and were not coarse or
contrived. I’m not bragging. And I’m not going into details. But I’ve
known nothing like it since and it wasn’t only me. One could hardly
venture out without some interaction taking place in which strangers
became friends.“It reached an airy culmination off Portobello Road
around 10.30 one morning. I was on my way to buy fruit from Nellie’s
barrow when a pair of eyes crossed my path, there was the look, I
followed him down an alleyway and hey, presto, it was all happening,
screened by the packing cases in a little warehouse behind
Woolworth’s.”Well, how was it for you?
The Shuttle has read two of Fallowell's travel books : One Hot Summer in St Petersburg and Going As Far As I Can about his travels in New Zealand. That book upset the Kiwis badly which alone should be an endorsement. Both books are a superb read and Fallowell has some heavyweight fans. Graham Greene became one as did William S.Burroughs.

But researching Duncan Fallowell via the Internet we came across this intriguing piece in his Wikileak's page :
